The explanations are by far much better than Kaplan and that is another point in which UW really stands out.
Sometimes it can get frustrating but it is the BETTER learning tool from my experience. What I have noticed is that UW really makes you think and has questions where more than one answer can be right but you really have to concentrate and pick the "one" best answer. I have to say that Kaplan is somewhat easier than UW although for some reason at the end of the day there seems not to be such a huge difference in scoring percentage. I am doing both of the banks simultaneously right now.I am doing UW by subject and Kaplan in mixed mode. I think the majority of people feel that UW is the best question bank out right now for the exam. UW is cheaper and considered better for step 2ck but for step 1 if you have done kaplan UW is not a must. If u have done entire Kaplan qbank and qbook, UW is not needed. I decided to just use the NBME and UWSA for correlation but I guess nothing is certain right. There is one point though, doing it in tutor mode is not good for trying to correlate your score. I had a problem in the beginning by starting out with random, timed mode because I felt like I was just jumping around everywhere when I went back to review the questions after answering them. By doing it in tutor mode by subject after reading each chapter, I think it will help solidify the information and will also tell you where you are still weak. I would suggest doing it in tutor mode in order to get the maximum benefit out of it. Hi guys can anyone suggest what to do after 1 read of kaplan ? if i take uworld ,how shuld i revise kaplan and do FA along with it simultaneously? Paul.cud you please answer this question for us.regarding the order. Ya.if there is a particular reason for that please explain.as far as I know after the Kaplan readings we shud do Qbook and Qbank and then UW.I dont think it makes a difference!! Yea same question why Qbank last? does it make that much of a difference?
You should Kaplan Lecture Notes first, then UW QBank, then Kaplan QBook, then Kaplan QBank (which comes last, not first).Ĭould you pls explain more about the order of qbank :why after reading KL notes, we should do uw first and then, kaplan qbook and finally kaplan qbank ,? I thought that kaplan qbook, kaplan qbank should be done right after reading kaplan notes to improve the understanding and memory. You shouldn't go to the exam without doing it. u should do both if u have time but UW is a must. i had a few Qs in the exam which i answered just bcoz of UW knowledge.Ĭant say much about kaplan Q bank but what i have heard is that its not better than UW. but the concepts in UW are really important. Yea i think hes right im about 5 months out im not fully time studying but im doing qbank 59% completed then doing UW after then NBMEs hopefully it works
U have got to do BOTH.first finish the q bank then do UW
